Affecting Scenes! HELP! PLEASE!

[Jason64]

OK,
(Working in MX) I have a movie clip(unnamed) and inside this clip I have 5 buttons(hit areas) that I would like to attach events to. Each one of these 5 hit areas affect a different SCENE and FRAME NUMBER. BUT, for some reason it's not working. It seems so easy, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. All I would like to do is execute a script within a clip and have that script perform an action on another scene and frame! This is what I have and it DOES NOT WORK. Please help!

on (release) {
_parent.gotoAndPlay('Scene2', 2)
}

I have also tried these, (which also DON'T work):

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay('Scene2', 2)
}

and

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay('Scene2', 2)
}

I don't get it, all I want to do is back out of that clip and affect the main timeline. or the main timeline in another scene, please help!! Thanks All!!
